New DNA testing proves that Ephraim "Vause" Vance and Theodosia "Hewlings" "Vause" Vance IS NOT I repeat IS NOT the parents of Abner Vance! The information on these pages indicating that Ephraim and Theodosia were his parents "All was clearly stated that it wasn't documented" is not correct, and will be removed asap.

DO NOT post Ephraim "Vause" Vance and Theodosia "Hewlings" "Vause" Vance as the parents of Abner Vance as recent DNA testing has proven they are not!

The story of Abner Vance has been told for years, most of them are relatively the same, and all with the same outcome. New information and insights have came to light. I ask that any decendent of Abner Vance, or anyone interested in this story to have a look at the information that has been found. This puts new ideas, and insight into the legendary story of Abner Vance.

I want to thank Barbara Cherep for the many hours she spent looking for information concerning Abner Vance, his life, his trial, and his death. I also want to thank her for sharing her findings with the rest of us, Thank you, Barbara.
